A high-contrast display serif with strongly flared stems and wedge-like, beak-shaped terminals. The design shows a pronounced thick–thin rhythm, with dense verticals and sharply tapered joins that create lively internal counters. Serifs are expressive rather than strictly rectangular, and many strokes swell into ends, producing a sculpted, slightly calligraphic feel. Proportions read broad and sturdy, with compact apertures in several letters and a generally assertive, weight-forward silhouette across both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book titling, posters, and bold brand marks where contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers, especially in editorial layouts that benefit from a classic, attention-grabbing serif voice.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, evoking vintage editorial typography and classic poster lettering. Its sharp contrast and flared endings feel formal and declarative, with a hint of old-world flourish that adds drama to headlines and short statements.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through strong contrast and flared stroke endings, combining classical serif cues with a more expressive, display-oriented structure. It prioritizes a memorable silhouette and rhythmic stroke modulation for title and branding use.
The lowercase shows strong personality in rounded letters (a, e, o) where heavy bowls meet sharply tapered entry/exit strokes, creating a dynamic, almost engraved look. The numerals carry the same wedge-terminal logic and high contrast, helping maintain consistency in settings that mix text and figures.
